Record Keeping Final Fantasy Record Keeper

So, since I only did one pull, I still have over 100 Mithril.

Should I do more FFT Banner pulls, or save it for the future?

[Jo'ou Ranbu]

I've no idea how to feel myself. I guess now Ramza's my best character forevermore, but I kinda wish I also had -something- for Agrias. Oh well, I s'pose I can also make him my RW wielding that 7* Golem Flute with 130 Mind once I master Shout.

[DjinnAndTonic]

I also only got one 5* character relic from the FFT banner, but it's okay since it's Platinum Sword!

I'm also not broke, so that's the best part of the whole thing.

[Jo'ou Ranbu]

I should've stopped on the second 11-pull, which is where I got the Platinum. Oh well. The crazy luck on banner 5 caught up to me fast, but at least I got Shout.

EDIT:

Success! Cloud/Gilgamesh/Lightning/Mog/Lenna, with Quistis' Mighty Guard as the RW. Took a lot of S/L to get Leblanc to go down without crippling my party first, but after I managed that the other two easily. SSB spam is useful.

Congrats! The first Ultimate's one hell of a feeling to topple.

...I just thought of something.

Zenny must be looking at this thread and frothing at the amount of people getting the Platinum Sword here.

[Jo'ou Ranbu]

He's probably sleeping. He had it coming anyway, though.

[Meeplelard]

12 Pulls (50 Mithril + 100 Gems), got 2 5*...

...both N-kai Armlets.  Well, at least Ramza can throw Meteors now and it's synergy armor for FFT that I can fuse after the event.

Both. I was anticipating this day anyway.

[DjinnAndTonic]

Really my favorite part is having Platinum Swords AND Sentinel's Grimoires in both versions of the game I'm playing while Zenny languishes. This game is so much fun when you play with others!

[Cotigo]

I'm sorry I can't hear you over all the salt I'm drowning in.

Magic: I forget what you have in your load out, but eh, if you have Shout I'd save your mythril unless you really need Physical SBs. Agrias' SSB is good but its use against U/+ bosses is pretty niche comparatively (granted, that niche is still pretty good against Multitarget bosses). Her regular SB is arguably better, could be worth it for that. Otherwise... Yell and Stone Throw compete for breathing room with Scream, which is fine for Yell but obsoletes Stone Throw. The N-Kai armband is at least a really good armband, though.

Also keep in mind that you're not gonna have any FFT synergy events until 6 months from now so yeah, probably best to pull on more common/difficult realms. FF8 synergy, for instance, would be nice for when y'all get wrecked by Ifrit.

Just for SSB sake, I have the following:

Squall's Cutting Trigger - Blasting Zone
Bartz's Excalibur - Trueblade of Legend
Sephiroth's Yoshiyuki - Black Materia
Zidane's Orichalcum - Shift Break

Terra's Maduin's Horn - Magitek Missile

After that, it jumps sideways into me having useful SBs for characters, like Zack's Air Strike, Red's Lunatic High, Eiko's Emerald Light, and Exdeath's Grand Cross.

[Cotigo]

Yeah, as nice as a good Knight/Saint's Cross user S/SB would be for you Agrias is perfectly serviceable without a relic. I'd save your mythril.

[Jo'ou Ranbu]

The FFRK subreddit has never been as depressing as it is now. This is a hell of a feat.

EDIT: Even knowing how overpowered Shout is in advance does -not- prepare you for witnessing its absurdity first-hand.

Don't pull, the rates were changed from the jp version for the worse.

Incidentally, I'd like to ask people following me what my user text looks like.

[Jo'ou Ranbu]

"F**k DeNA."

[Shale]

11X pull #3: Yet another off-banner SB-less relic (FF6 Golden Shield, now I have a 6* one) and....Kaiser Shield! A great SB for Agrias and it boosts Crushing Blow's damage? Okay, I can live with that. Will still pull more as I accumulate mythril (I got four this morning from dailies and core, I can easily get to 50 before the banner dies), but if I strike out for the rest of the event I'm still notably better off than I was yesterday.

[Jo'ou Ranbu]

Man, Kaiser Shield was the relic I wanted the most out of that banner.

[Captain K]

I made no pulls on FFT, therefore I cannot be disappointed.

[Scar]

This game hates me.

4 pulls. Loads of crap.

1 sword.

Defender.

Bleh.

[Nitori]

This banner is a bit sketchy, I was gonna pull more but I might just save for Basch-1 and Edea-2.

Especially since "off-banner relic" seems to mean "soul breakless 5*"

[Jo'ou Ranbu]

I'm going to wait for Basch's banner as well, I've gotten to the point where I need FF12 synergy and, besides Basch's shield, there's also Fran's Full Breakdown bow. I really want a stat-busting relic, after all. Edea-2 would be nice for the Crescent Wish, but it shows up like every other month. FFT banner's chaff relics border on unusable by anyone who's been playing for more than three months.

[Nitori]

I also need 8 synergy, my 5* Ten-Gallon Hat, Blitz Sword, and Morning Star can only go so far.

Plus magic up + haste, and potential ZELL hype

[Scar]

I guess it's time to start saving for delitas banner.

Magic UP and Haste from Edea's Crown is the other reason to draw from that banner to me. I'm fine on FF8 synergy at this point, though, even if it's real mage-heavy (two Rinoa weapons, a generic whip, two hats and that Red Scorpion). At least, I have a gunblade, a dagger and two guns for physicals.

EDIT: and back to the old grind. Highlight of the day is getting a Major Black Orb and Auron's RM2. Still a couple days before I can get Ramza's MC2.

[Shale]

Looking over my inventory, I figure I should actually take stock of what gear I have for each realm and where I need to shore up. I'm actually....surprisingly good for synergy in the common realms? I'm legit surprised by this.
